LEGO General: Absolutely Disgusting edition

You guys ever done a build colab with someone where you have done nothing on the actual build but get them reference pictures and suggest ways to do things because fuck me it feels good.

I've been thinking of dipping my toes into the Architecture line.

Any of these sets that are particularily good? I really like the look of those "skyline" sets

>>5635620
No but I always wanted to build and play with other fans of Lego. Shame noone has time nowadays...

>>5635622
same, bought the Eiffel Tower set, it's pretty nice desu, I'd recommend it.The proportions seem off at first, but you'd get used to it.

>>5635622
I'd quite like to get the New York one, but I don't have a Gorilla Man minifig to put onto the Empire State, so it'd forever feel incomplete.

Not him, but it looks to me like the stud-stud connection you can easily get using any given Technic pin beam or connector end.

Basically you just attach two bricks to both ends of the pin connector end with a brick akin to this one. It's technically illegal due to the studs putting some stress on the pin hole, but it works as a double-jointed connection in this instance.

>>5635620
I post WIP here all the time asking for suggestions. so yeah, I'm always expecting anons to do that.

inspired by the talk of metal slug vehicle anon and advancewars i tried to make a rounded turret section of a Neotank styled vehicle.

I'm not all that happy with the wheeled platform it's on yet, i might get some of those rubber tracks that were in the ice exploration theme.
Made it space police themed because i had these vectored/rounded pieces of them laying around unused since forever.

>>5635971 is mostly correct, the only other thing I did was thread a short axle through the center of the 2x2 round plates to pin it all together. Very sturdy, lots of friction, and about 180 degrees of bend.

I rebuilt the head last night to make room for those pointy bits that stick out the front of the helmet.

>>5636327

Yeah, it doesn't necessarily need to be a mini-you, as you said it's more of less like a physical avatar.

Judging by the minifig dresses (since they are a similar material if not the same) I'd think they come free in the bag.

For Galaxy squad, the bug sets really weren't too good, but the bug minifigures were pretty awesome.

The actual GS members, though, the vehicles were cool, but the minifigures were kinda meh. Nice that we ended up getting so many extra colors in tertiary ways, though.

I can't wait for the Star Wars LEGO sale this weekend. I'm getting the Battle of Takodana and possibly a couple battle packs. There are some other sets on sale like the Mixels. I will grab a few of those too.

Sure. I misspoke; it's more accurately a wheeled robot, not a vehicle. I know I've posted it once before, but I never posted the full backstory.

As a kid, this was my "sigfig" who was the main character of all my adventures. His name is X-1 (super-original, but in my defense I had never heard of anything else called that before). It's a robot invented by an futuristic science organization dedicated to monitoring other timelines and realities and defending them from evil. Though it lacks hands, its antennae have tactile telekineses, so it can pick up things just like a regular minifig can.

Thanks to the immutable laws of time travel, it has to reach 88 MPH before it can travel through time. Luckily, it's so advanced that as long as it has a little big of wiggle room to move forward, it can instantly achieve the required 88 MPH. It can also fly by popping the tires partway off their wheels and angling them. It often surprised enemies who didn't realize it could fly.

There were two minifig scientists who worked for the organization, a male and a female, but I don't remember their names and don't even know if I bothered giving them names.

X-1 ended up spending a lot of time in Space Castle Dimension, because I really liked that setting.

>>5636971

Virtually everywhere sells them for 3.99, aside from Target, that occasionally likes to charge 4.99. Here in Texas we have a local chain of supermarkets that are currently selling Series 14 and 15 for 2.97. Don’t know if they’ll catch the error on the Disney ones.

>Then again I doubt they'd sell much over that price and realize that.
Apparently Lego sets the regional MSRPs based on what they think the people in the country can afford, so sets in poor countries are ostensibly cheaper (in dollars) than sets elsewhere (or would be before any import tax/ bribes/ etc).

I don't know how much variation there is, but I read this info on a legitimate site.

For the anon in the last thread who was concerned about the broken sword in the Vizier's back, it was already mostly broken due to somebody bending it almost all the way off the hilt at some point in my dark age. I just finished the job to get that shot.

I keep a collection of broken parts to use them specifically for situations like "just impaled a dude". There's another pirate sword that looks like the end was held up to a fire, and the Castle sword used to be part of the Game of Electroswords throne until I knocked it off the table and that blade snapped clean off. There are some other broken pieces but they're more functional than front-and-center so they're still in with their kin until they become completely useless.

I also have a broken motorcycle handlebars that sometimes shows up in After the Brick, but I don't know where it is right now.

It's time to terminate your reliance on other individuals and ascend to the next form of being. Anything that your heart of hearts desires, you must claim as your own. You know what you must do.

How did that go? I dipped as soon as I saw the first reply to the "LQ isn't that great" post. Not looking to read that shit.

>>5637183
everybody pretty much agreed that it was a super fuckin' stupid argument to be having and that people should:
A) post more photos
B) comment more on photos that are posted that aren't Lego Quest
And it was also fairly unanimous that Lego Quest gets a lot of praise because he does a lot of good.
those are the minutes from the last /lg/ general meeting

Just kidding, that's a great shot. Is the light on her face just reflecting from the screen?

It wasnt even really a shit storm, just two or three people talking about it really. Seemed to end on a good note at least, didnt descend into the screaming matches people have had with me.

>>5637191
fuck off /lg/ every time i post a photo here one of you guys notices a hair that i had NO idea existed

Thank you, though. Actually it's a pink light pointed down and reflected back up by white paper. I know my way around a camera but I'm still learning a lot when it comes to lighting, particularly at such a small scale.

>>5637197
Hulkbusterfag here, what camera do you use? Im stuck with a shit smart phone for the time being with no ISO etc settings that I know of. I WANT to improve, I even have a decent chinese lightbox figured out, buts its the camera gear I have issue with on my end.

I didn't think it was just laptop keyboard reflection, so awesome job. Your camera might have different settings for different types of lights (tungsten, etc.) that changes the way it detects light and color. I use that a lot to do things like make gray crater baseplates look like tan sand, or make more or less contrast between the land and sky.

I have a Canon 600D, but I don't have any lenses specifically for macro so I use one that's for portraits but does great depth of field. The downside is that I have to be very far away from the subject when it's so small and I lose a lot of clarity.

As far as phones go, you're right in that there's not too much you can do. However, I would honestly say that lighting is as, if not more, important. Your chinese lightbox alone should do a great deal to make your photos look more professional, even if they're taken on a phone. Once you remove the glare (I still have trouble with this, as evidenced by the harley photo), like Lego Quest showed in an earlier thread, photos look a million times better — and that's all lighting, nothing to do with the camera.

>>5637206
I wouldn't have even been able to pick that those are grey baseplates; they honestly look like sand. I think I just need more ways to defuse light so that I don't get a great big glare in the face of my minifigure.

Thanks man, good to get some positive input.

Sad thing is my GFs brother replaced his older DSLR camera with a brand new one, new lenses and everything, and just has his old one collecting dust with all its extras. He actually offered it to her and she didnt think we needed it. Of course this was before we both got back into lego, so at the time our junky cameras and smart phones we had were good enough for cat pictures....

>>5637244

Believe me, I know. Was pretty pissed when she told me. Im working on her trying to get it from him, but its been a while, and she doesnt want to come off as a dick, plus hes a photo addict, so he may be using the old one as a "tosser", as in he sets it to take a bunch of pics on a timer and throws it into the air, so who knows what condition its in right now.

Photophiles have their own strangeness and oddball ways of doing things.

>Can you please give me a run-down on how you use your baffles? (Even so far as where you point the light(s))

OK, I made a diagram. The black rectangle in the center is the table that I shoot on, as seen from standing in front of it. The upper edge of the table is adjacent to a wall (which is where I put the colored backdrop pieces).

The standing lights come up higher than the table, and the baffles are wider than the bulb shades, so no direct light (not counting the little bit that gets through the cracks in the baffles) shines on the table. However, it hits all the walls and the ceiling and bounces around (diffuses) before illuminating the table.

Basically, I'm making the room brighter (and thus lighting up the minifigs more) without shining any lights directly on the table. The reason you get glare is because the bulbs are reflecting off the surface of the pieces. By increasing the ambient brightness of the room and simultaneously taking away the direct light, you illuminate the whole set more evenly. Note that the background shadows in the pic here >>5637225 are deeper in the top image where no baffles are being used and more muted in the bottom pic with a fully armed and operational baffle station.

Let me know if you want more information.

>>5637348

>just bought a yugioh booster pack

shit, why did I do that? I should be focusing on one hobby, could have spent the same amount of money on a small set instead

>>5637335
Thats part of the thrill of it apparently. We had given him an old junky point and shoot to use for that before, but he always didnt like the quality of said photos (as if that really matters when said photos are a picture of a literal blur. Filter that shit up, drop some effects on it, boom, "art".), and to be fair that P&S cameras lens was getting fucky in its old age. But yeah, even if his DSLR was 20 years old plus (which I dont think it is, I dont even think its ten years old...), thats a decent piece of kit to consign to being tossed around literally.

>>5637373
>buying cardboard

>>5637373
Having multiple hobbies is fine. Focusing on just one thing gets boring. Even the people who are really into LEGO branch into photography to showcase their stuff, or something similar.

Unless you're just impulse buying to buy something, in which case you should seek help.

Thanks, I wasn't sure how helpful the diagram was going to be.

In retrospect I should have used two pieces of posterboard, one white and one black, and made baffles that were two sheets thick so the white "inner" surface would reflect more light and the black outer surface would keep any light from getting through. I would suggest doing that if anybody else is going to make their own.

Anything that floats your boat. Go to Lego's website, look at the neat City and Neo Knights and Ninjago and stuff. Since you mention interest in Trains I'm inclined to mention Technic for its models and model functions.

Use Bricklink for added fun of whatever flavor you like.

don't look bolted to the ground or nothing like that, easily worth a few hundred dollars. Damn i'd love to see videos from the ppl that build these creations and what not.

>>5638373
I know I have seen videos of them making the sculptures online. I think they put metal bars in the big ones. They don't move at all even with kids hanging on them. I'd guess they have some sort of anti theft built in

There's a bit smaller Nexo display in one supermarket here, and even that had well over 100,000 pieces and weighted over 100 kilos.

Thanks to my brother i finally could put my finger on what was wrong with my neo tank. FEET. I managed to find some sockets from old bionicle sets and went to work. I'm missing one leg and foot tip in black each, but for now it is functional. The "real" thing also has wheels on it's feet, this is possible to do, but i don't have the parts for it right now. But for now i prefer the proportions and hydraulic looking legs to the original wheeled one i made.

Finished the dragon. Pretty cool. It starts out with a bunch of moving Lego sculptures kinda like a small world type ride. Then you actually roller coast.

>>5638295
It would be glorious.

>tfw you helped build a old portion of the models for legoland Florida

Glad to see someone enjoys my Chima figs! Wait until you hit miniland, man.

Also, fun fact for you: the models are coated in a uv resistant spray that periodically needs to be removed by being blasted with ground up walnut and reapplied. It's the same stuff cars are coated in so no matter what the plastic will eventually fade causing the entire model to need rebuilding.

Oh and yes, the large models do have steel frames inside of them.

>>5638433
oh cool, how are these thing designed btw? Do they use some kind of digital software that aproximates shapes into bricks/voxels or somthing?

>>5638438
Lego had their own proprietary software that allows digital rhino files to be turned into sculpted 1 X 1 brick designs which the designers then refine and clean up before handing off to the builder. Sometimes a Lego employee only version of LDD is used on smaller scale things or models that require specific pieces like the majority of miniland.

We use a chemical that causes the abs plastic to melt and fuse together. Of course beyond that, interlocking techniques are used. A lot.

Holy shit. Visible warping and discoloration

So, I'm building this fucking monster of a set
https://rebrickable.com/mocs/sheo/modular-railway-station

And this is the current partslist of what I still have to get.
http://pastebin.com/wXdgA3GN
Really just a lot of rarer pieces, and way more of the common stuff than normal. I'm thinking 40-50 buck chunks a paycheck to do this.

Anyway, Bricklink is where to go right? How fast do shipment not from USA take, like from Europe or Canada? What about Pick a Brick though?

>>5638515
L-lewd...

>>5638527
>Bricklink is where to go right
Right.

>How fast do shipment not from USA take, like from Europe or Canada?
Canada shouldn't be too terrible. Rest of the world highly depends on if you pay for Economy or Priority and also where you order from. Week or two would be my best bet.

>What about Pick a Brick though?
Absolutely take a look there if you want to, but you need a fair share of luck because they don't have everything

Would you guys recommend this set?

I just want to get back into Lego by building random basic buildings and shit and Minecraft looks fun. Maybe a regular box of Lego would beg better though?

I just want the mooshroom...

>>5638553
Only if you get in bellow the original price.

>>5638559
Damn so that's a no. I'm in Canada so things are a bit more expensive when it comes to Lego anyways.

The main problem isn't that it's a shitty set in itself, it's a mediocre playset, the problem is that it has the UCS mark.

The just fucked up big this time, as they've shown that they can make playsets that still look nice (Sandcrawler for example)

This Hoth set is just a mess, ugly builds, useless features (outpost not in the movie, really big tauntaun feeding station) and it's way too ugly for an AFOL to display and way too expensive for 99 % of kids

Pretty sure it counted it as head, body, legs. I'm pretty sure the arms did come out too though, so it should have said 5, unless they were treating it minifig style where you don't count the torso as more than 1 part when piecing it out.

>>5638620
Well that review killed my interest in that set. Seeing how everything looks behind shows how shitty the build is. I was already hesitant due to that whole ONE snow trooper for the whole set, but seeing all the details really shows how lazy the designer was.

Star Wars sets in general seem to really be lacking lately. I see a trend of making things "playable" with shooting elements instead of a solid set that looks good from more than one angle, and isn't trimmed down. I hope this trend of making sets that are made for front display only that include projectiles for play ends soon. The design ideals between the two counteract one another and make messes like this set.

Also, I loved that bit about making it "accurate" and then also tacking on stuff that they think should be there. I guess it snowed on Yavin 4? /autism

>>5638512
The gap on the side where the cutout slope piece is should be filled in, so the curve is continuous.
Have you tried using the newer mudguard pieces, with the smaller arc?

This is my fourth visit. But it's been at least 2 years since I was here last. I really love the Pharaoh and adventure stuff. I didn't do pick a brick. It's by weight inside the park. I don't think it's that good of a deal. Maybe I'm wrong
